    This is absolutely delicious. Didn't have snow peas or beans so I added baby peas instead. I'll absolutely make this again. - 6/29/08

    As others have mentioned, the portion size is tiny - I think it would make me want more...better make a huge salad with it :) - 3/12/09

    This is just my kind of pasta recipe! I sometimes like to add sliced black olives or/and artichoke hearts (canned) Mmmmh... QUE BUONO!!! Thanks for sharing! :-)

    BETHPROVERBS31 - I believe the tomato is included in VEGETABLES that have to be tossed with drained pasta - #3 in instructions... LOL - 11/3/08
